Orioles' Burch Smith: Sunk by two homers Sunday
Smith (4-1) took the loss Sunday versus the Astros, allowing two runs on two hits and striking out two over one inning.
Alex Bregman and Yainer Diaz went back-to-back on consecutive pitches in the seventh inning, and the Orioles weren't able to bounce back, leaving Smith with his first loss of the year. Smith was pretty effective after initially joining the Orioles in mid-July, but he's now been on the hook for multiple runs in three of his last four appearances. Since Aug. 10, he's allowed 10 runs (nine earned), including five home runs, over seven innings. Smith is now at a 4.84 ERA, 1.39 WHIP and 41:11 K:BB overall 48.1 innings between Baltimore and Miami this year.

Orioles' Dean Kremer: Posts quality start Sunday
Kremer allowed three runs on seven hits and two walks while striking out five over six innings in Sunday's loss to the Astros. He did not factor into the decision.
Kremer held the Astros scoreless through three innings before they rallied for three runs against him in the fourth with five hits in the inning. Otherwise, Kremer posted a strong outing and put together his third straight quality start. The 28-year-old allowed nine runs in 9.1 innings in his first two starts this month but has rebounded with just five runs allowed over his last 18 innings. For the year, Kremer owns a 4.31 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 96:43 K:BB in 102.1 innings. He lines up to face the Rockies on the road over the weekend his next time out.

Orioles' Ramon Urias: Provides lone run support
Urias went 1-for-3 with a three-run homer in Sunday's loss to the Astros.
The Orioles mustered up just two hits, but Urias got a hold of one against Yusei Kikuchi in the fifth to even up the game at 3-3. Urias has swung the bat well lately, slashing .302/.354/.651 with four homers, 13 RBI and seven runs scored since Aug. 10. For the year, he's hitting .247/.316/.416 with nine homers, 31 RBI, 29 runs, a steal and a 21:47 BB:K in 256 plate appearances.

Orioles' Cole Irvin: Making another start
Irvin is scheduled to start Tuesday's game against the Dodgers in Los Angeles.
The Orioles called Irvin up from Triple-A Norfolk last Wednesday to make his first start with the big club since June 30. Injuries have hit the Baltimore rotation hard recently, which has resulted in Irvin getting his third trial in a starting role despite the fact that he has produced an 8.80 ERA in 30.2 innings over his last nine outings in the majors. He'll be at risk of moving to the bullpen -- if not being removed from the 40-man roster -- as soon as Zach Eflin (shoulder) and/or Grayson Rodriguez (lat) return from the injured list.

Orioles' Samuel Basallo: Moving to Triple-A
The Orioles promoted Basallo from Double-A Bowie to Triple-A Norfolk on Sunday, Jacob Calvin Meyer of The Baltimore Sun reports.
The 20-year-old is one of the top prospects in baseball and will now make his way to the highest level of the minors. Basallo appeared in 104 games for Bowie this season and posted a .285/.353/.455 slash line with 15 home runs and nine steals. Adley Rutschman is locked in as Baltimore's backstop of the present and future, but Basallo should still have a chance to make his major-league debut in 2025, assuming he's able to handle Triple-A pitching.

Orioles' Cedric Mullins: Takes batting practice Sunday
Mullins (quadriceps) took part in the Orioles' batting practice ahead of their matchup with the Astros on Sunday, Taylor Lyons of The Baltimore Sun reports.
Mullins was ruled out of the lineup for the second game in a row due to a quadriceps injury he suffered Friday, but his participation in batting practice is a positive sign. The Orioles have a day off Monday before they launch a three-game series on the road against the Dodgers on Tuesday, and Mullins can be considered day-to-day for the time being.

Orioles' Keegan Akin: Snags win Saturday
Akin (3-0) allowed a hit and struck out one in a scoreless inning to earn the win Saturday over the Astros.
This was Akin's first game back from the paternity list, and he was able to capture the win after Jackson Holliday put the Orioles ahead with a three-run double in the sixth inning. Akin had been a little shaky recently, allowing five runs over 9.1 innings across his previous six appearances before welcoming his child into the world. Overall, the southpaw has a 3.46 ERA, 0.95 WHIP and 79:16 K:BB while adding four holds over 65 innings this year, excelling as a multi-inning option out of the bullpen for Baltimore.

Orioles' Jackson Holliday: Hits game-winning double
Holliday went 1-for-1 with a three-run double in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Astros.
Holliday pinch hit for Emmanuel Rivera with the bases loaded in the sixth inning and cleared the bases on the first pitch he saw. It was much needed, as he was mired in a 1-for-23 slump after a four-hit game Aug. 16. While his season slash is still a miserable .175/.230/.342, the rookie has five home runs, 18 RBI and 14 runs scored across 86 plate appearances since being recalled July 31.

Dominguez has been busy lately, securing three saves and losing two contests across five appearances over the past seven days. He locked up his fifth consecutive save chance for the Orioles on just eight pitches and owns a 2.77 ERA, 0.77 WHIP and 16:3 K:BB across 13 innings since joining them July 26.

Orioles' Albert Suarez: Allows two homers in no-decision
Suarez did not factor into the decision in Saturday's 3-2 win against the Astros, allowing two runs on four hits and two walks with three strikeouts across 5.2 innings.
Suarez was pulled an out shy of a quality start after surrendering his second solo homer of the game in the sixth inning. A leadoff blast by Jose Altuve in the first broke the 34-year-old's streak of 17.2 scoreless frames since joining the rotation Aug. 6, and Suarez has now exceeded 90 pitches in three consecutive outings. On the year, he owns a 3.18 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 81:35 K:BB across 102 innings and lines up for a road matchup at Coors Field next week.
